Irrelevant to the question, but one of my students today was worried that they didn't get monads yet. "That's possibly because I haven't told you about them yet."https://twitter.com/rob_rix/status/1226717996506341376 …

How did it go?

I got overenthusiastic about cool stuff and they looked at me like I’d just arrived from another planet. So just another normal lecture, really.

Definitely not what I'm thinking! I'm pretty sure I won't get Haskell even after knowing what monads are

I will take that as a challenge... you've only had a fortnight, give it time :).

I remember the time before monads...

I have told them about IO, and what happened before that. Just not monads. Maybe I should tell them about the flag that made it beep when the garbage collector ran...

I feel like I do get monads but only because I can finally look at the type of bind and not feel stressed. I think there's definitely some intuition I'm missing though because if I really understood monads then I think comonads ought to make more sense to me at this point.
